STORYLINE:

US President George W. Bush and challenger John Kerry are in the last hours of campaigning in a final frenzied bid to reach out for votes in crucial battleground states.

Both candidates are criss-crossing America in the hours ahead of Tuesday's election for president, Bush and Kerry both claiming to be the strong, steady leader needed in a time of terror.

Bush's campaign schedule on Monday was more gruelling than any day of the 2000 race when he squeaked to victory with 537 more votes in Florida than Democrat Al Gore.

In Ohio and Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Iowa, New Mexico and Texas, Bush was carrying a message of hope, a prosperous economy, the spread of freedom in other nations and his pledge to be relentless in fighting terrorists.

He took a few jabs at Senator Kerry, but the main message of the day was urging supporters to get out and vote.

John Kerry's campaign journey took him on Monday to Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio to thank supporters and ask them to get people to the polls.
